FormWare

Captiva's award-winning FormWare software is designed for companies that process large volumes of complex forms - tax forms, medical and insurance claims, credit applications, order-entry forms, purchase orders and others - and those that need to index and archive documents, such as legal and financial materials. Within those organizations, the software helps operations, production and information system managers automate and manage the process of extracting, enhancing and preserving the value of incoming information that feeds database, document management and data warehouse systems, maximizing the value of the data and increasing productivity.

FormWare Highlight Features:

• Free Form Processing allows users to capture and process data from structured and unstructured forms. The Free Form solution is a cutting-edge technology that employs fuzzy logic to locate particular data types on unstructured forms and extract required information.

• Internet Form Processing (I-Form) provides a simple and seamless way for users to extend data capture to web based forms. Validations can be made within the browser to provide instant feedback and once the remote user submits a form, the web-server checks the data for completeness and accuracy.

• ClaimPack is a medical claims processing solution that is designed to automatically process HCFA 1500s and UB92s, which are nationally recognized medical claim forms.

• Remote Scanning capability adds tremendous power allowing paper to be scanned from any location. The scan client can be installed virtually anywhere, and images are sent to a receiving site where they are inserted into JobFlow via a FormWare Internet server.

• XML , HTML, images, ASCII data from fields, full text indexes and many other word processing file formats can be imported or exported.

• VBA is fully integrated so that all of your business rules can be implemented in a common, non-proprietary language.

FormWare uses a modular architecture that is open, scaleable and workflow controlled. It includes forms definition, scanning, image pre-processing, OCR/ICR/OMR and barcode recognition modules that allow XML, machine print, hand print, marks and barcodes in images to be quickly read and converted to ASCII data. FormWare's post recognition processing module reflects Captiva's historical expertise in this market and provides superior reject repair, image data entry, key verification and data validation to complete and perfect the data capture process. FormWare's JobFlow module provides specialized data capture workflow capabilities to automatically route batches of images and data from module to module and graphically report the status of all unprocessed, in process and completed work. Using this information, managers can rapidly identify processing problems, prioritize jobs and visually reconfigure systems to optimize throughput.
